pgchess Quickstart

Notes

The procedure described in this document has been tested on a PostgreSQL
9.2 server, where pgchess version 0.1.7 and pg2podg version 0.1.3 have
been installed.

The SQL files in the test/sql/play directory make use of the
convenient \ir meta command, which was introduced on PostgreSQL 9.2;
on PostgreSQL 9.1 it is necessary to rewrite such files using the \i

version of these files as well.

Step 1
